I will never forget that day. From where I was able to see the towers. I remember sitting on top of a parking deck daily and just looking and seeing the smoke for days. Each day I drive to work I look at where the towers SHOULD be.

Just remember all the people that were lost that day, all of whom are innocent victims.

Lets not just remember the people that were working as civilians, but also the people who gave their lives to try to save them.

The NYC Police
The Port Authority Police
FDNY, Fire and EMS.
Amongst were probably civilians who chipped in!!!

If anyone is near the city, you will be able to see the Blue Lights at night. I forget how long they will be lit, but it is something to see if you have not. It is truly amazing!

The Blue Light will be on from sunset tonight to dawn tomorrow 9/12/01.

Everyone take a minute out of your day today and say a prayer for all that have perished on 9/11/01!!

Ahhh to bad it is going to be bad weather tonight. I wanted to go and take pictures of it.

Maybe i will get out and see, but with the wind and rain, hard to take the low light pics correctly.

Wish they had it on longer!

Don't know what you want to call it. But it is nasty out. Very windy and rainy.

Not going to make for a good night at work. Luckily I don't have to answer the motor vehicle accident calls.
